i been feeling...


Question Posted Friday February 2 2007, 9:05 pm

(freshmen)at school i have no friends it not cuz im weird it is because i just dont fit in anywhere there are many cliques and i dont fit in is because i came from a different school area and because i am in advanced classes i still dont rele no anyone, all my friends from my middle school went to different schools but we r still tight. the thing is i have been very depressed over that all i do is hw i dont participate in school activties because i have no one to enjoy it with and i cant join clubs it is too late and i also feel very different because i am black and go to a prodominant white school i dont no wat to do, my other friends are also dealing wit this problem i feel rejected so the question is how so i become accepted in a world where i feel rejectedand also does this get better as i further my high school education

do not wait it out cause its only going to get worse.wat u gotta do is join as many groups as possible like sports. also, if you hear a conversation that you can contribute to, do it but dont just jump into it,you have to ease your way in so people will know that your ok.also, if you see someone in the hall struggling with their locker or picking up some books that they dropped, hel them.or maybe while your in the library and you see someone reading one of the books you've already read then just sit maybe a chair away from them(so that your not getting too close to them) and tell them how you liked that book or strike up some kind of conversation with them about that book and slowly it might lead up to that person talking about their little brother and then that she will see you at lunch.

this stuff might seem a little scary to do at first , just walkin up to someone and just start talkin, but it works.im possitive.

advanced classes?

umm, i think that the only thing that you can do is wait it out, be patient, over time you will learn more about this new school, and these new people.

growing up i hated school, middle school sucked and even though high school was a little more accepting of me i still hated it and felt like i didn't belong there at all...

when i went to college it was like night and day difference.

i was jocks hanging out with goths, and nerdy guys hanging out with cheerleader types... it almost seemed to me that whatever your title was in high school was left at the door when you went to college... no longer are you there because you HAVE to be, but you actually WANT to be there so much that you are paying ridicuously large sums of money just to be there...

i think that sort of mind-set is enough to get everyone willing to be open-minded and accepting of others... of course you still will find those silly little cliques of pretty girls, or skater guys hanging around, but the friendship diversity in college is vastly superior then in high school...

good luck!

I think you should join activities because that is how you meet people. If it's too late i think you should go to your guidance counselor and explain your situation she will get you into something you want to do and why not join spring sports. I am also a freshman and i didnt realy have friends i just had to join some things i liked to do i made friends who share the same interests as me.
